Members 4fishys Posted April 3, 2006 Members Posted April 3, 2006 Just visiting to say hi. Buying some land down there for retiring in a few years, and it was great to spend some time while looking last week. Spent one vacation there years ago, but wife and I always said we'd have to check it out when it was time to pull the plug. Glad we did. I KNOW it will be quite different than the fishing up here in the Chicago area, but I'm excited to learn. This won't happen for a few yeaes unless I hit the lotto, but wanted to say hi, and let you know you have an anxious reader waiting to really contribute. It was a brave man who first ate an oyster!

Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted April 3, 2006 Root Admin Posted April 3, 2006 "and looking forward to your presence" Brian... running out of lines??? You're so funny. 4fishys- This is a great place to retire... hopefully it won't be as crowded as Chicago when that magic time comes to retire. Pray for an early retirement buyout... prayer gives you a much better chance than the lotto. Welcome.
Members bill kelley Posted April 4, 2006 Members Posted April 4, 2006 Glad to see someone else from Chicago. I know you will love fishing in Taneycome and up on Tablerock. I live in Midlothian and come down 3-4 times a year. I can't get enough. I started fishing here before the tablerock dam was built. Spent my summers with my cousins on a farm near St. Louis. Now We're all reaching retirement and planning on more time just letting a fly drift a little. Welcome. Enjoy the fishing.
